I slept for the longest time today. Woke up at 945am and then went back to sleep again at close to 1pm.

Lots of noise the whole time I was trying to sleep. But everything finally ceased at about 2pm, I'm guessing on this.

Woke up at almost 430pm and watched tv till until 615pm, before I finally made myself go run. Get a breather, in this trecherous weather...

But as I was jogging to the park where I usually run at, I saw the sunset. And then I had this thought in my mind - it's time to wake up from my fairytale.

A thousand and one things ran through my mind as I struggled to keep running from my lack of stamina. So many times we get judged from what people see, regardless of whether that is the truth. Until sometimes I ask myself, does truth really matter? Perception does seem to be the new reality.

All these while I guess I know where I wanna end up at. Just a tad not that willing to look at my end point since the journey is such a tough one. I just tell myself to keep moving, keep running, I will get there.

But then I recall that Jesus focused on the end, as His journey was an even tougher one. And the difference? I failed (as of now) while He had the victory not just for Himself, but for us all.

Time to wake up. Time to stop imaging what life could have been, no matter how close I seem to have been there some time back in my past. Time to focus on my end point, like my Friend, my Comforter, my Jesus.

I will get there. Just like how very often, sunset gets ignored as compared to the sunrise. But nevertheless the sunset looks just as pretty and magnificent as the sunrise.
